Solutions providingrealistic grasping rely on special hardware or requiretime-consuming parameterizations. Therefore, we introducea flexible grasping algorithm enabling grasping withoutcomputational complex physics. Objects can be graspedand manipulated with multiple fingers. In addition,multiple objects can be manipulated simultaneously withour approach. Through the usage of contact sensors thetechnique is easily configurable and versatile enough to beused in different scenarios. ER
